I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a couple of apartments in Truro both have about 50 years unexpired on the lease term. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?
There are plenty of short leases in Truro. The lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the saleability of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more expensive to extend the lease. This is why it is generally wise to increase the term of the lease. More often than not it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease because mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.

I'm remortgaging a apartment in Truro. I have found my conveyancer's company on the Law Society's list, but I can't locate my lawyer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Is this a big problem?
Not every individual in the law firm must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is a manager qualified to 'oversee' the work, the actual day-to-day activity can be conducted by unlicensed staff.
